Description

TECHNICAL AREA

The present invention relates to an electrical socket for use in a sanitary room, such as a bathroom, according to the preamble of claim 1 and a mounting frame according to claim 15.

STATE OF THE ART

Bathroom functions have become more complex in the recent past. Examples include shower toilets or toilets with odor extraction. The additional functions require a corresponding power supply. For example, for the control of the shower toilet or for a fan motor.

Often, however, are missing sockets and electrical connections in bathrooms, which could provide a sanitary article with electricity. There is therefore a need to provide electrical connections in the vicinity of or even on the mounting frame.

From the EP 2 568 089 A1 a WC connection device in the form of a mounting frame for a shower toilet is known, which has an electrical connection device and a shower water connection device. In the electrical connection device is a hole in the mounting frame, through which an electrical connection of the shower toilet is made possible with an electrical connection located behind the mounting frame.

The disadvantage of such devices, however, is that the installation and / or maintenance of a shower toilet requires skilled workers from different trades or trades.

PRESENTATION OF THE INVENTION

Based on this prior art, the invention has for its object to provide an electrical box of the type mentioned, which is easier to install and their maintenance is easier. In particular, it is an object of the present invention to design the electrical box so that it can be maintained by a plumber.

Accordingly, an electrical socket for a sanitary installation with a sanitary article, a housing with an interior, which is accessible via a front opening, comprises an internal partition which divides the interior space into a first spatial area and a second spatial area divides. At least one electrical contact element is arranged in the partition, which has a first connection point facing the first space area for connection to a building-side electrical installation, such as a power installation and / or a building control system installation, and which has a second connection point facing the second space area. Furthermore, at least one electric element can be arranged or arranged in the second spatial area, which electric element has an electrical interface which can be electrically connected to the second connection point of the electrical contact element via a plug connection. The electrical element is connectable via a conductor element with a sanitary article.

Due to the arrangement of the partition, the first connection point can be arranged physically separated from the plug connection between the second connection point and the electrical element. In case of maintenance, the plumber can relatively easily replace the electrical element, because no manipulation of the first connection point is required. It is only necessary to separate or produce the plug connection between the second connection point and the electrical element. Cooperation by the electrician or the building management technician is therefore no longer required.

Preferably, the first connection point is already factory with a cable prefabricated. This means that the first connection point is in the first room area with a cable in connection, which is then connected to the infrastructure-side electrical installation. Alternatively, the cable can also be connected on site. Regardless remains after the first installation, which must be made for regulatory reasons by the electrician, the advantage that maintenance work can be done due to the division of the interior and due to the connector between the electric element and contact element by the plumber without the help of an electrician. In other words, the electric box is connected by the electrician to the building-side electrical installation and then the plumber can complete the installation and perform maintenance, such as replacing the electrical element without the help of the electrician.

By the term "plug connection" is meant a mechanical connection which is made by relative displacement of the electric element to the contact element and which is separated by relative displacement of the electric element away from the contact element.
